AND, when beetles battle beetles in a puddle paddle battle and the beetle battle puddle is a puddle in a bottle they call it a tweetle beetle bottle puddle paddle battle muddle.
No, in fact beetles have complicated mandibles. Flies generally have simpler fused mouthparts. I studied entomology and have no clue what this comic is even saying. Maybe a joke about stingers?
As someone who knows nothing about entomology, it reminded me of this one beetle with a comically large pointy bit. I think it's called a hercules beetle.

Are insects really that complicated?
Either they have mouth, stinger, or skin, and one or more of them is doing the damage.

Well some ant spew acid, some millipede puke cyanide, and some will smack you with a nail. Don't go near that one.

I don't think it's focusing on only mandibles as weapons

The problem is that they clearly think the outgrown mandibles are equivalent to that.

First thing that came to mind is the bombardier beetle, which shoot chemicals from their butts.
